IGNATZ LOJDA, OF NEW YORK, N. Y.

cLoAK.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No.249,53'7, dated Novem'ber 15, 1881.

Application filed September 2, 1881. (No model.)

To all whom it may concern:

Be it known that I, IGNATZ LOJDA, a citizen of Austria, residing at New York, in the State of New York, have invented a new and useful Improvement in Ladies Oloaks, of which the following is a specification.

The nature of my invention consists in a cutting in or near the front part of a ladys cloak, to one side of which one side of a short sleeve is attached, capable of being turned outward to put'the forward part ofthe arm through the same, or capable of being turned inside and put into a suitable pocket made in the lining ofthe cloak.

Inthe accom panyin gdrawings, Figure l represents a side view of a lladys cloak with the sleeve turned toward the inside. Fig. Il is a section at line a a., Fig. I. Fig. III is a side view of the cloak with the sleeve turned outward. Fig. 1V is a section at line b b, Fig. Il.

Similar letters represent similar parts in all the figures.

A represents the cloak,with the usual collar B. Near the'front part an incision or cut, n, is made into the material. To the after edge of said incision a flap, m, is sewed. This flap mis made'of the same material as the outside of the cloak, and may be ornamented with any, desired trimming, lpart ot' which covers the seam where the ap m is sewed to the edge of the ineision or cut n. To the forward edge of said incision the one side of a shortV sleeve, C, is firmly sewed in such a manner that said sleeve U will project from under the ap m and allow theforward partot the arm to be passed through said sleeve, as shown in Figs. III and IV; or by turning the inside of the sleeve outside said-sleeve can be turned inside the cloak and placed into a suitable pocket, s, made forthat purpose between the outside material ofthe cloak and the lining o, as shown in Figs. I and II. This arrangement I usually make only at one side, preferably the right side, of the cloak; but it may be made on both sides, if desired. By this improvement the outside material of the cloak may be made in one piece, without any longitudinal seams, usually required when sleeves are inserted in the usual manner at or near the shoulder, While at the same time all advantages are obtained. The flap m will cover the incision or out n made inthe body of the material, and, when suitably trimmed and or# nainented, will add to the beauty oftheeloak.

What I claim as myinvention, and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

In a ladys cloak, the incision or cutn in the front part of the cloak, in combination with a Hap, m, sewed to the after edge of the incision, and a short sleeve, C, sewed to the forward edge of the incision, constructed and arranged to operate substantially in the manner described.
